Mandeville man killed in St. Tammany Parish crash

A Mandeville man was killed Tuesday morning when his car veered into a ditch and crashed, State Police Troop L reported.

The accident occurred at 2:35 a.m. on Louisiana 59 at the Louisiana 1088 intersection, just north of Mandeville, Troop L spokesman Trooper Nicholas Manale said.

The victim was identified as Kyle Borges, 23.

Borges was driving a 2011 Ford Focus north on Louisiana 59 when he failed to maneuver a left curve and his car left the roadway, Manale said.

The car veered into a ditch, flipped and landed across the eastbound lane of Louisiana 1088, Manale said.

Borges, who was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash, was ejected from the vehicle and transported to Lakeview Regional Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead as a result of his injuries, Manale said.
